Rediscovering Self: Navigating Identity Loss in Women

Losing a partner can shake the foundation of one’s identity, especially for older women whose sense of self may have been closely tied to their relationship. Jonna Tamases, an experienced therapist, offers existential therapy or narrative therapy to help women explore their identity, rediscover strengths, and reconstruct a sense of self.

Existential therapy encourages older women to confront questions about their identity and purpose in the absence of their partner. Through deep introspection and philosophical exploration, Jonna Tamases guides women in understanding their unique strengths and values, paving the way for personal growth and self-discovery.

Narrative therapy focuses on reshaping the narrative of one’s life, allowing women to reinterpret their past experiences and envision new possibilities for the future. Jonna Tamases assists women in reframing their stories, empowering them to reclaim agency over their lives and embrace a renewed sense of self.

By working with Jonna Tamases, older women can navigate the challenging terrain of identity loss with compassion and support. Through therapy, they can embark on a journey of self-exploration, uncovering hidden strengths and embracing a sense of authenticity and purpose in their lives.
